Fall!



Fall!

Where oh Where did Summer Go?
Just a few weeks left and Fall will begin??
Really? 
I say it’s here already!
Cold and Blustry here in North Eastern Oregon today!
However, I don’t mind...
The first homemade bread of the season is baking in the oven 
and
Jazz Music on the Radio!

Oh how I love to Cook in the Fall and Winter!
One of my Favorite recipe books is shown below.

The Food Journal of Lewis & Clark!
Lewis and Clark wrote about food almost everyday in their journals.
Author Mary Gunderson’s words inspired her to write this book.
Every recipe offers a glimpse of life along the trail
and
Life of the early 1800’s.
I created an entire dinner party based on this book.
Guests were fascinated over the food and journey through history.
It’s also a fun way to educate kids.
So have FUN this Fall in the Kitchen!
Have a Great Evening!
Your Artist Friend...Yes...still in the Wilds!

You Golf...I Bird!


I would rather “Bird” than Golf!
Both are in full Spring Season!
I have been an avid birder since 1964.
My parents gave me the 
Bird Life Diary 
that year for Christmas!
It has now become a treasured possession.
You can read in detail about my personal diary
in the Blog Archives below.
The “Birding World” has provided a place to escape into nature,
develop my sketchbook and continue the study of the Great Outdoors.

I sketch the many birds I see and learn their habits.
The sketch above was the study for the painting:
“There’s One in Every Crowd”

You learn to observe their behaviors and comic individuality.
Watch closely and their human interactions come forward.



When I am out in the field I try to take notes of the surrounding habitat.
I will sit and observe and sketch features for future reference.
My many sketch books have now grown to cover a 
variety of places and subjects.

A personal Life-Journey. 
I want to encourage everyone to start “Birding”.
What JOY it has brought to my LIFE.
600 plus species now & counting.
Have a Wonderful Evening!
Your Artist Friend,
Jennifer Lake

Be an Oregon Bird!

Be an Oregon Bird!
A Meadowlark!

One of the first sounds of Summer 
is the arrival of the
Oregon Meadowlark.
The song they sing whistles through the sagebrush of Eastern Oregon.
The striking color of their yellow breast against 
the sage green and blue skies
begins the Artist’s Summer Palette.

Add caption
I have created many sketches of the Meadowlark.
 I also painted several original paintings of them.
Always singing their song.
 The one above is caught singing his departure song 
as the foliage turns to fall colors.
Add caption
The image above is so special to me.
The original painting depicts a colorful wall at 
Smith Rock State Park.
The Yellow Daisies (Mule Ears) add to my parents amazing ...
William & Katherine Lake

The combination of three family artists in one image ...
I simply Love!
All three framed images have been designed just for You!

Out of the Blue




BLUE is BACK!
Blue has to be one of my favorite colors and it is HOT!
Interior Designers, Decorators and Artist's 
are truly enjoying the resurgence of the color!
Pan-tone selected it as one of 2019 and 2020 
BEST COLORS! 
The painting below is titled appropriately!
"Out of the BLUE" 
 I created the painting from several photographs I took
of Lesser Scaup ducks swimming on the Oregon Crooked River.
The parent's decide to leave their children home 
as they enjoy an evening swim together.
Two of the children gaze at them 
while the other two plan some mischievousness while they are away!

The parent's are seen below. 
Note the head shape and the gold color eye.
The head of the male is iridescent.
The male duck with its slightly turned head 
is
"Watching the Kids" from the corner of his eye!

Spring is just around the CORNER!
Enjoy!
Prints, Canvases etc are all available by

Have a Wonderful Evening!
